It seems like Dovecot doesn't check other folders than the main maildir
by dnotify, may that be possible?
is this common behaviour?

(Newest Version available in Debian 4.0, newer version in testing tree
requires
new version libc...)
I got a procmail rule that moves mail from some senders to another
folder, e.g.
.archive.facebook/ . This works fine, the message appear in
.archive.facebook/new if i "ls" that directory by shell. But
dovecot.index files
don't get updated, hence IDLE doesn't tell the client new mail arrived.
this
only happens if i click on the folder in thunderbird. like this, not even
clicking on Thunderbird "Check mail" button shows me new Mail arrived.
Is this a common error in this version? would there any benefit if i self
compiled a newer version regarding this issue?
Thanx
